Blue Jays Defeat Padres Amidst 5.7 Magnitude Earthquake

Most Read

Last week, a 3.6-magnitude quake hit Los Angeles; this week, a 5.7-magnitude quake—followed by today's string of at least 100 more quakes ranging from 2.5 to 4.5 in magnitude—swept across Southern California, according to the United States Geological Survey. Though none of the recent tremors are said to have caused injury or damage, Monday's mid-sized quake was enough to momentarily halt play at San Diego Padres' Petro Park. According to NESN.com, when the stadium began rumbling in the 8th inning, the PA announcer confirmed to fans that they were experiencing an earthquake and to remain calm. But, apparently, a quake can't shake up The Blue Jays, who went on to defeat the Padres 6-3.
